Industry context

Start with the operating environment

Retail platforms join customer experiences to catalog, pricing, inventory, order, fulfillment, payment, marketing, and analytics systems. AWS changes need to account for traffic events, integration failure, regional or channel dependencies, and the cost of both steady-state and peak capacity.

Workload patterns

Engineering decisions the scope may need to resolve

01

Peak and event readiness

Model demand, bottlenecks, quotas, scaling, caching, queues, degradation paths, observability, and recovery for launches, promotions, holidays, and other known traffic events.

02

Commerce integration reliability

Make order, inventory, payment, fulfillment, notification, and data flows explicit, including retry, idempotency, reconciliation, degradation, observability, and failure ownership across systems.

03

Performance-to-cost engineering

Relate customer latency and availability to compute, database, cache, data-transfer, logging, scaling, observability, and commitment decisions across changing demand patterns.

Discovery questions

What we need to understand before recommending a path

The first conversation should surface the operating facts that change architecture, sequence, access, acceptance, and ownership.

  • Which customer journeys and downstream systems are critical during peak demand?
  • Where can a slow or failed dependency cause duplicate, lost, or inconsistent business actions?
  • How are capacity, service quotas, degradation, rollback, and event rehearsals handled?
  • Which product, channel, environment, or workload dimensions should own AWS cost?
